Anyone ever dye a trick top seat?

(1/2) > >>

Just wondering if they are nylon and if they will dye (the seat, not the padded bit)  :-\

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
the seat may dye, but the top padded part may soak up the colour but in a washed out way and not fully

got pic ?

cheers B  :D

Cheers Bendy.  :daumenhoch:

Its a faded orange one on the bay. The paded bit is knackered and i would replace it but just anxious as i know plastic doesnt dye does it.

BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN:
da ja vu - haven't we spoke about this before  ??? :D ;D

some seats do dye well - some don't

it's the nylon used in the seat along witha mixture of plastic - some have more (kashi) and some have none (sella aeroyals)


i know you want one but it will turn up soon  ;)

 :LolLolLolLol: yeah we have been here before, of sorts. Last time it was a trick top copy, the seat was fine but the white padding was yellowed. This one is much worse all round but a real trick top  ::)

Bloody kids bikes eh, who'd have em  :2funny: :2funny: :2funny:
